Answer 1

Answer:  The cost of one rose bush is $7 and the cost of one shrub is also $7

Step-by-step explanation:

The situtation can be represented by the systems of the equations.

10x + 4y  =  98   x in this case is the cost of  one rose bushes

9x + 9y =  126     y  is the cost of one shrub.  

Solve the system of equation using the elimination method.

10x +4y = 98

9x + 9y = 126     eliminate the y variable so you will have to multiply 9 on top                                          and -4 down.

9(10x +4) = (98)(9)

-4(9x + 9y) = 126(-4)

You will now have the new two systems of equations

90x +36y = 882

-36x +-36y = -504    Now add the equations

0  + 54x = 378      

        54x = 378

  x= 7

Now we know that the cost of one rose bush is 7 so we will plot it into one of the equations and solve for the cost of one shrub.

90(7) +36y=882

630 +36y = 882

-630            -630

    36y = 252

   y = 7

Check:  10(7) + 4(7)= 98

              70  + 28 = 98

             98= 98  

so one rose bush is actually 7 dollars the same as 1 shrub.
